Curb Appeal & Exterior Paint Colors Advice Please!
Comments (4)Thanks, lyfia, yes, I wanted to post over there but I could not find any instructions on how to post photos there. Luckily I just googled the net for those instruction for Gardenweb posts and just found a poster who had the same problem and got an answer, so using that info I just reposted my question over there. Is there a somewhere on the Garden Web homepage where they give official instructions on how to post pictures on the forums?...See Moreadvice on exterior paint colors: front door, garage door, curb appeal
Comments (14)Snap a photo on a sunny day then use the Sherwin Williams ColorSnap app to play with the colors. I would select a tone slightly darker than your mortar for the garage door and a color slightly darker than your darkest brick for the front door. I would then on the garage door install magnetic faux hinges and windows; this will add detail to the door, like the below house. I know they can be found on Amazon, not sure where else.

Comments (16)I think just darkening the posts and railing goes a long way. I tried making storm/screen door a matching green but couldn’t find your exact door which looks pretty so it just needs a Hunter green exterior paint job. I put a couple strips of grass. Some boxwood plants to hide foundation along with seasonal flowers. I put some crushed granite for walkways to give a more finished look. The driveway in front needs a good tar coating. Not sure if that is driveway or street? Hope this gives you some ideas. See if you can find a local artisan who can make a nice sign for you....See MoreExterior curb appeal + paint colors
Comments (10)The current color is nice, but the different color over the half moon window is distracting, so when you repaint, make that the same color as the rest of the house. Are you looking for a change? What colors do you like? Were you thinking of going lighter or darker? At least on the side you're showing there isn't any brick or stone that would dictate going in a particular direction, so you have free rein. Give us an idea of what you like so people can make relevant suggestions. Also, the roof color doesn't show in this picture. Please post a picture that shows the roof or tell us what color it is....See Morecat_ky
